@sneed457 The Eastern Roman Empire only held Rome from 554 to 751. But the Empire survived until 1453. For the vast majority of its history, the Eastern Roman Empire didn't include Rome. That's why Constantinople was considered "Second Rome" or "New Rome". Thus, by capturing Constantinople, the Ottomans controlled the new Rome.
